Thomas A Kempis is well known for the Imitation/Following of Christ, the second best selling book of all time after the Holy Bible. His rich spiritual writings have been read by Catholics since the book was first written in 1418. What most readers don't know is that Thomas A Kempis wrote 27 books in all and most have been out of print for 100+ years.
St Athanasius Press has spent the last 2 years searching for these rare spiritual classics in order to bring them back into print so today's Catholics can benefit from the spiritual richness found in Thomas A Kempis' books. The first such book is Vera Sapientia or True Wisdom. Softcover. 220 pages. In English.
This unedited edition was translated from the Latin by the Right Rev Mgr Byrne D.D., V.G.and originally published exactly 100 years ago. Written in a similar style as the Imitation of Christ it is sure to become a widely read book in a generation that has all but lost its real sense of true wisdom and spirituality.
